I had a base station as a kid. 35-40 years ago. Ended up with a 40 channel set with upper and lower sideband. Had a few low fm crystals installed. Peaked and tweeked. I had a starduster antennae. Couldn't afford a moonraker 4 or 6. The neighbors wouldn't have liked it either as it came over their tv's at times. The radio shop where the work was done is still in business here. Any day after school I could talk to the southwest area of the Country I'm in the state of Delaware about 20 miles south of Philadelphia. The skip at times was unreal and I could talk to others like we were in the same room, very clear. Once for about a week when the skip was running good I talked to a lady in London England. That was about in 8th grade. I had a teacher that let me use her post office box for "Q" cards from the people I talked to. Basically a post card to prove you talked to people. The lady in England I'll never forget hers, it had 2 Old English Sheep dogs on the front. Haven't touched one since, but as stated someone must be using them as I said R&R is still in business. 1 Wiskey 13 13 over and out.
